Hi, I have a 2009 diesel Accord. Where is the engine oil drain plug? Do I have to remove the big plate underneath the engine? My oil 2004 Accord just had a small panel you removed.

Thanks

Not sure mate, you will have to have a look under the car. Maybe put a pic up for us to work out. I would imagine there is a small panel just like the 7th gen but not sure though.
 
If the diesel is the same as the petrol there is a plastic panel is the middle of the big one.
Remove the 8 bolts from memory and the drain plug is there
 
Sorry, No small plastic panel and the nuts on the big aluminium panel (about 3) just turn so I do not want to force them unless I know those are the ones that need to come off. Most annoying this.

Just had a check and on the diesel you need to remove the Aluminum panel.There should be 7 bolts in total.

Many thanks, I will have a good look at the weekend when I will get it up on ramps as opposed to just jacking it up and then I guess it will be a case of grabbing the nut sort thing with vice grips and the bolts with my 10mm socket.
